Spitfire Nests

 

After bringing Arekim back to base camp, the scout’s side quest will now become available. These Companion quests are a nice way of gaining extra dialogue options, Codex Entries and exploring parts of the world you may not have seen otherwise.

You should be in the Base Camp for this, so if you’re not, teleport there now. 

First up, go and speak to Arekim and select Infestation. He’ll require you to go and clear out Spitfire nests that have shown up around Dynevron.

These nests are bathed in fire and will continuously spit out Spitfires, which are the flying insects that throw fireballs around. It’s worth noting that this mission is made 10x harder if Dynevron is in Drought, so to make life easier, teleport there when it’s either a Clear sky or Frost.

The location in Envoy’s Landing holds two nests, one on top of the ledges, and other under the columns, which you’ll find here:

The ones in The Yard meanwhile, are located up the hill just beyond this. There are three nests here to destroy in total.

When you approach these nests, be sure to use Ice Wall to prevent the Spitfires from hitting you, and also to calm down the fire around the nests. Not only that, but it also makes the nests brittle, which allows you to slash at them with your sword much more effectively.

Once you’ve destroyed the nests, head on back to Arekim and report on your good work. This will also bring the mission to an end too.
